Stimulants and coffee

Posted by Alex J on January 27, 2002, at 15:29:30

I am very interested in seeing how those who are on stimulants react to coffee. I ask because coffee can have a very paradoxical effect on me and I would like to see if others have experienced this effect.
I am currently on Dexedrine, 15 mg two times per day and I crave coffee constantly. The problem is sometimes coffee gives me an energy and mood boost and other times I feel like crying and end up having to take a nap shortly after a cup as I also feel extremely tired.
Does anyone else have problems with coffee? If you do, could you please indicate what med(s) you are on as I am trying to figure out the brain chemistry involved here.
Any input (even from those on something other than stimulants) would be greatly appreciated.
TIA,
Alex
